A maintenance contractor built around the people who manage buildings
GBS Property Maintenance, Go Building Solutions, provides comprehensive building maintenance and repair services to managing agents, property managers, landlords and commercial clients across London and the surrounding Home Counties.
What we do
Managed buildings need a contractor who turns up, does the job properly and documents it. That is the whole of our offer. We deliver dependable planned maintenance, reactive repairs and larger project works across residential and commercial portfolios, covering general building maintenance, electrical and plumbing, roofing and leak investigation, decorating, windows, drainage and groundworks, access works, metalwork, waste removal and insurance-related works, with fire doors and firestopping as our specialism.
We are approved contractors for a number of leading managing agents and property management companies, including R&R, Savills, Encore, Rhodium and FirstPort/Mainstay, and work closely with their property management teams. Our clients answer to leaseholders, boards, auditors and insurers, so everything we issue is written to stand up to that scrutiny.
As a company we are committed to high standards of workmanship, health and safety, compliance, responsiveness and professional service, from initial investigation through to completion.
How we work
- A short-form scope and a detailed breakdown on every quotation, with labour and materials separated.
- Day rates, unit rates and materials mark-up stated up front; provisional sums only where the scope cannot be fixed.
- Options presented where there is a genuine choice, so you can brief your client on cost and outcome.
- RAMS before works start, a job report with photographs on completion and variations agreed before they are carried out.
- Respectful working in occupied buildings: notices, tidy sites and considerate hours.
Our values
Trusted expertise
Trade-led delivery with a specialist understanding of fire door compliance and communal building fabric.
Exceptional standards
Measured, evidenced work. We report what we found, what we did and what remains outstanding.
Long-term partnerships
Consistent pricing, one point of contact and programmes that reduce reactive spend over time.
Sustainable communities
Repair before replacement, materials chosen for service life and sites left as we found them.
Nicholas Nicola, Managing Director
Nicholas Nicola leads GBS Property Maintenance and is the single point of contact for client accounts. Every scope, cost plan and programme is reviewed personally before it is issued, and clients deal with a decision-maker rather than a call centre.
Safe systems of work as standard
Risk assessments and method statements are issued before every job. Operatives work to site rules, permit systems and the building's fire strategy, and statutory certification is provided by certified partners where the works require it.
Public liability and employer's liability insurance held. Certificates available on request.
